this is not your revolution.

No matter what the actual truth of the Assange case may be, the effect this has on women who are raped is profound, and profoundly terrible. Because it teaches them that, if enough people like your rapist, it is literally unsafe and unacceptable for you to report your own rape.

Alternately, the only way your rapist will be prosecuted is if you conveniently go public with your accusations when he’s already wanted for unrelated issues by major world governments! Unfortunately I suspect the truth of the matter is that he is not actually being prosecuted for any alleged rape, but rather because important people want him shut up. No, seriously. When was the last time a high profile alleged rapist was actually arrested? Oh right. Never.
